A pendant is a necklace. However, the word "pendant" does not appear in the play; the word you are looking for is "pedant", a scholar (hence our word pedantic). This particular scholar has come from Mantua and is planning to continue his journey to Rome and eventually to Tripoli. He is fooled into thinking that he has to conceal his nationality because Mantuans are no longer welcome in Padua, and therefore he has to impersonate Lucentio's father Vincentio.
